Good Morning, Grey Weather

November. Fog. Perhaps a pipe after lunch. It doesn't get any better. This season, as Lewis spake of its "brown solemnities", leans on me.

Rite

Bold September closes crisp and bright
To usher in a brilliant, woody breath
Which leaves October’s leaves beside themselves
In unction last, in blood red robes, in death.

Just remember to move your hand or foot once in a while so others don't take you for a pile of burning leaves and try to put you out.
Good to see you a'bloggin'

And the phrase "Rest in Peace" is past apt at the first full coverage snow.
